Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups canola oil
4 large eggs, separated
1/2 cup hot water
2 cups cake flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 large sweet potato, peeled and grated (1 1/2 cups)
1 cup finely chopped pecans, toasted
1 tsp vanilla extract
citrus filling
orange glaze

Directions:

Beat sugar and oil at low speed in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in hot water.
Stir together flour and next 6 ingredients; add to sugar mixture, stirring just until blended. Stir in sweet potato, pecans, and vanilla.
Beat egg whites at high speed with an electric mixer until soft peaks form; fold into batter. Pour batter evenly into 3 lightly greased and floured 8-inch cake pans.
Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 10 minutes; remove from pans, and cool on wire racks.
Spread 1 cup Citrus Filling between each cake layer. Pour Orange Glaze over cake, letting it run down sides.
